RECORDS OF WATER LEVELS IN WELLS IN 
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. 



By F. C. Ebert. 



INTRODUCTION. 
SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF INVESTIGATION. 

The valley of southern California, as defined by W. C. Mendenhall,* 
is the lowland region that is limited on the north by the San Gabriel 
Range and is separated from the Mohave and Colorado deserts on 
the east by the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains. Toward 
the west it is open to the Pacific, and on the south its limits are irreg- 
ular and to a certain degree indefinite, the lowlands gradually giv- 
ing way to the highlands of San Diego County. The wells whose 
records of fluctuations of water level are given in this report are 
chiefly in this lowland region, which includes San Bernardino Valley, 
the foothill belt between San Bernardino Valley and Los Angeles, 
the coastal plain west and south of Los Angeles, and San Jacinto 
Valley and adjacent areas. (See PL I.) A few records are also 
given for wells in San Diego County (pp. 126-151). 

The prosperity of tliis important region is very largely dependent 
upon its ground-water resources. Most of the water supplies, whether 
used for domestic purposes or irrigation, are obtained wholly or in 
part from ground water. In 1905 MendenhalP estimated that two- 
thirds of the land at that time under irrigation in this region obtained 
its water from subterranean sources during the protracted period 
of low run-off then prevailing. Since that time much more land has 
been brought under irrigation, and the proportion of land supplied 
with ground water has probably been increased. 

In 1900 the United States Geological Survey began a series of 
studies of the occurrence, amomit, distribution, and use of the ground 
water in the region, and published reports on the ground-water re- 
sources of San Bernardino Valley,^ the foothill belt,* and the coastal

plain. ^ A report on San Jacinto Valley and adjacent areas has 
recently been published.^ For such studies, records of the fluctua- 
tions of the water table extending over long periods are very valuable, 
because they show the extent of the depletion of the subterranean 
supply during times of light precipitation and heavy pumping and 
the extent of replenishment of this supply during the times of rela- 
tively heavy precipitation. 

When the work was begiui it was found that records of water-level 
fluctuations were available for only a few widely separated wells. 
Typical wells, properly distributed over the region under investiga- 
tion, were therefore selected for observation, and measurements of 
the depths to the water level in these wells were made from time to 
time. In recent years additional wells have been selected and at 
least two measurements are made every year in each of the observa- 
tion wells — one measurement in the spring, when the water level is 
generally highest, and one in the fall, when it is generally lowest. 
The Gage Canal Co. has furnished a record of a large number of 
measurements of a well known as the Williams well, near San Ber- 
nardino (see p. 121 and PL II), and Mr. J. B. Neff has furnished a 
record of measurements of his well near Anaheim (see well No. 41, 
p. 44, and PI. IV). 

Most of the data collected prior to 1912 have already been pub- 
lished ^ in water-supply papers, but, for the convenience of those who 
wish to use the records, all the data are included in this report. 

CAUSES OF FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER TABLE. 

The supply of ground water in the valley of southern California is 
derived from the following sources : 

1. The streams which rise in adjacent mountain regions and flow 
over the valley areas, where their water percolates into the under- 
lying gravels. This is the source of most of the ground water, but, 
owing to the intensity of rainfall and the resulting rapid run-off 
in floods, much of the surface water escapes to the sea. Several 
methods of preventing this waste have been tried, the method most

generally used being to increase the percolation area by spreading 
the flood waters over the debris cones where the streams enter the 
valley areas. 

2. The rain which falls upon the valley areas. The amount of 
absorption from this source depends largely on the perviousness of 
the soil and underlying deposits. 

3. The water applied in irrigation. During the irrigating season 
practically all surface water is conveyed through pipe lines or canals 
from the can5mns to the points of application. After being applied 
to the land a considerable portion of the water sinks into the gravel 
and is added to the ground-water supply. 

The supply of ground water is depleted by the following causes : 

1. Pumping from wells for irrigation and domestic supply. 

2. Discharge of springs and flowing wells. 

3. Transpiration from vegetation. 

4. Evaporation from sloughs and other low lands where the water 
table is near the surface. 

A record of the fluctuations of the water table extending over a 
period of years will show the depletion and replenishment of the 
supply of ground water. Such a record, when studied in connection 
with records of precipitation and run-off, will show whether the 
supply, which has been depleted by superimposed draft due to in- 
creased use of ground water in addition to the natural depletion 
during dry years, is renewed during years of abundant rainfall. In a 
basin in which this does not take place either the replenishment must 
be increased by water spreading or other means, or else the with- 
drawals must be reduced by preventing waste or decreasing the 
pumpage. Otherwise the water table will be lowered to such a depth 
that it will no longer be profitable to pump the water. 

GENERAL CONDITIONS SHOWN BY THE RECORDS. 

To illustrate more plainly the favorable and unfavorable periods 
of replenishment and their effect on the ground-water level, graphs 
have been prepared showing precipitation, run-off, and fluctuation of 
the water table in the four principal areas — San Bernardino Valley, 
the foothill belt, the coastal plain, and San Jacinto Valley. The rec- 
ords of measurements during 1920 are given, but it has not been 
possible to bring the graphs up to date. 

SAN BERNARDINO VALLEY. 

San Bernardino VaUey lies near the eastern end of the valley of 
southern California and consists of the lowlands in San Bernardino 
County, in the Redlands and San Bernardino quadrangles. (See 
PL I.) The hydrology of this region has been treated in Water- 
Supply Papers 60, 61, and 142. For this area there are several

fairly long records of water-level fluctuation, which are of interest 
in a study of ground-water conditions. 

The principal source of ground-water replenishment is Santa Ana 
River and its tributaries. The Geological Survey has measured the 
flow of Santa Ana Eiver near the mouth of its canyon since 1896. 
(See PI. I and table below.) The longest record of precipitation in 
the valley is that at the city of San Bernardino, kept by the United 
States Weather Bureau since 1870. (See PI. I.) The Gage Canal Co. 
has kept a record of the fluctuation of the water level in the Williams 
wefl, about 4 J miles east of San Bernardino, since 1892. (See PL I 
and p. 121.) 

Plate II shows the departure from the average annual precipitation 
at San Bernardino, the annual discharge of Santa Ana Eiver at the 
mouth of its canyon, and the fluctuation of the water surface in the 
WiUiams well from observations made by the Gage Canal Co. 

Observation wells Nos. 64 to 68 and 86 to 135, inclusive, are located 
in San Bernardino Valley. (See PL I.)

FOOTHILL BELT. 

The foothill belt of the valley of southern California is the area 
eastward from the Arroyo Seco, near Pasadena, along the base of the 
San Gabriel Range, to the west rim of San Bernardino Valley. It 
includes the Cucamonga Plain and the San Gabriel Valley and the 
divide separating them. The Cucamonga Plain is the lowland west 
of San Bernardino Valley and above Santa Ana Canyon, where the 
river breaks through the Santa Ana Mountains. San Gabriel Valley 
is the area drained by San Gabriel River and its tributaries above

Paso de Bartolo except ^Vrroyo Seco. The foothill belt is shown on 
the maps of the Cucamonga, Pomona, and Pasadena quadrangles. 
(See PL I.) 

The principal source of ground water is the upper San Gabriel 
drainage basin. Important secondary sources are San Antonio, 
San Dimas, and other streams draining southwest from the San 
Gabriel Mountains. The United States Geological Survey has main- 
tained a gaging station at the mouth of San Gabriel Kiver Canyon 
since 1896. (See PL I.) The resulting discharge data, given in the 
table below, and the record of precipitation for Los Angeles, which 
has been kept since 1S77, show the favorable and unfavorable years 
for augmenting subterranean storage. Hence, a comparison of these 
two records with the fluctuation of the water level in we'll No. 42 
(p. 47), at Baldwin Park, is of interest. (See PL III.) 

Observation wells Nos. 23 to 33 and 42 to G3a. inclusive are located 
in the foothill belt. (See PL I.)

COASTAL PLAIN. 

The coastal plain has an area of approximately 775 square miles. 
It consists of the lands between the Santa Monica Moimtains and the 
San Joaquin Hills and extends from the Santa Ana Mountains and 
Puente Hills to the Pacific. The drainage consists of Santa Ana 
Hiver below the lower Santa Ana Canyon, San Gabriel River below 
Paso de Bartolo, Los Angeles River, and Santiago Creek. The 
region is shown on the maps of the Santa Monica, Redondo, Downey, 
Las Boisas, Santa Ana, and Anaheim quadrangles. (See PL I.) 

The principal sources of ground water in this area are the flood 
waters of the streams that traverse the area. Plate IV shows the 



10 WATER LEVELS IN WELLS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. 

fluctuation of the water level in well No. 41, based on a record kept 
by the owner, Mr. J. B. Neff (see p. 44), and the variation of the 
annual precipitation at the Irvine ranch, near Tustin. (See PI. I.) 
No gaging stations are maintained within the area, but the run-off 
records of Santa Ana Eiver and San Gabriel River (see PI. I and pp. 
8, 9) are applicable in comparing the causes of replenishment and 
depletion of ground-water supply as shown by the fluctuations of the 
water table. 

Observation wells Nos. 1 to 22c and 34 to 41, inclusive, are in the 
Coastal Plain. (See PI. I.) 

SAN JACINTO VALLEY. 

San Jacinto Valley is the lowland area in the San Jacinto River 
drainage basin above Railroad Canyon, which is a few miles south- 
west of Perris. The region is showTi on the maps of the San Jacinto 
and Elsinore quadrangles. (See PI. I.) 

The replenishment of groimd water in this valley is largely by 
percolation from San Jacinto River during periods of high water, but, 
owing to the low permeability of the soils, the percolation is slow. 

That there is an overdraft in some portions of the valley is indi- 
cated by figure 1, which shows the fluctuation at well No. 72 (see 
p. 75), and the departure from the average annual precipitation at 
San Jacinto. (See PL I.) It will be noted that in spite of favorable 
precipitation in the past four years the water table has been con- 
stantly lowered. 

Observation wells Nos. 69 to 85a, inclusive, are in San Jacinto 
VaUey. (See PI. I.) 

EXPLANATION OF RECORDS. 

In 1900 Lippincott made measurements of the depth to the water 
level in approximately 900 wells in San Bernardino VaUey.*' In 1904 
Mendenhall measured the same wells.^ A large nimaber of these 
weUs have never since been measured by the United States Geolog- 
ical Survey and are not considered herein. At a few wells, however, 
measurements have been made at irregular intervals, and these 
measurements are included in this report. In 1913 the wells still 
in existence and a few companion wells were given new numbers 
(Nos. 86 to 135, inclusive), and are designated by these new numbers 
in the following tables. Data collected prior to 1913 from the wells 
which had been destroyed or were inaccessible in 1913 are published 
in a separate table (p. 120) under the numbers by which they are 
designated in Water-Supply Paper 142. 

8 Lippincott, J. B., Development and application of water near San Bernardino, Colton, and Riverside, 
Calif., Part II: U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Paper 60, pp. 97-141, 1902. 

9 Mendenhall, W. C, The hydrology of San Bernardino Valley, Calif.: U. S. Gecl. Survey Water-Supply 
Paper 142, 124 pp. 12 pis., 1905. 



INTRODUCTIOl^r. 



11 



In addition to these wells in San Bernardino Valley, Mendenhall, on 
the commencement of his studies of ground water in the valley of 
southern Calif orj^iia in 1904, selected for observation a series of wells 
located in the coastal plain, foothill belt, and San Jacinto Valley. 
These wells, which are designated as wells Nos. 1 to 85, inclusive, were 
considered more or less typical for these important ground-water dis- 
tricts. The water levels in them were measured at irregular intervals 
prior to 1913 and have been measured more regularly since 1913.

Figure 1.— Graphs showing fluctuation of water level in well No. 72, in San Jacinto Valley, Calif., together 
with precipitation at San Jacinto. 

For each well in the series now imder observation (Nos. 1 to 135, in- 
clusive) is given the owner's name, the location, and other available 
information. The location of each well is shown on the map (PI. I). 
For most of the wells is also given a description of the bench mark 
from which the distance to the Vv'ater level is measured. The alti- 
tudes given for many of the wells from Nos. 1 to 85, inclusive, are the 
approximate altitudes of the surface of the ground at the wells ; the 



12 



WATER LEVELS IN WELLS IN" SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. 



altitudes of bench marks of wells Nos. 86 to 135, inclusive, were 
determined by instrumental leveling and are believed to be accurate. 
For wells Nos. 86 to 135, inclusive, the bench marl^s described were 
not located until 1914, and all measurements prior to this date were 
made from the surface of the ground. Most of the wells have been 
described in earlier water-supply papers, and references to these 
papers are given under these wells. 

In order to perpetuate the series, companion wells are being chosen, 
wherever possible, for wells in bad repair. 

Observations of the pressure of a few flowing wells in San Bernar- 
dino Valley have also been started, and the data thus far obtained are 
given on pages 1 1 7-1 1 9,

THE RECORDS. 



127 



SAN DIEGO COUNTY. 

In addition to the records of wells in the valley of southern Cali- 
fornia, records are given below for a few^ wells in the western 
part of San Diego County. Observations on the water levels in 
wells in that region were begun in 1912 by Arthur J. Ellis and 
Charles H. Lee. The data for many of these wells for the years 1912 
to 1915 were published in Water-Supply Paper 446, in the form of 
diagrams showing graphically the fluctuations of the water table. 
Many wells that were measured during that period were destroyed 
by the floods in January, 1916. In the present report the basic data 
for all wells that are still being measm-ed are given complete since 
1912, and data for a few new wells are included. The numbers cor- 
respond to those in Water-Supply Paper 446.
